I'm not saying its right, I'm just saying that the political correctness monster was not let off its leash by conservatives so I'm not terribly sympathetic to Obama here. Nor I am I obliviously to the gleeful hypocrisy of Republicans on this count.

I wholeheartedly endorse this post. How many times during the dems primary was Obama's campaign over words the opponent said to be racist. How many people like the Clintons and Geraldine F. got called racist. There was constant talk about disagreeing with Obama because it was racist. Heck, McCain dissassociated himself from evangelist because he used Baraks middle name.
Barak either is stupid or he was making an innuendo type statement. One of those, I mean this but you can take it another way statements. The reaction of the crowd tells you a lot. Do you laugh that hard at a warn out phrase?
